How about this one?

It's the road going version of Nissan's Le Mans car, the R390 GT1.

Maybe not in performance, but it certainly has the upper hand in styling and badge value.

The V12 Vanquish has been my dream car since it came out....

I was so flattered when someone asked me if my RX-8 was an Aston Martin, then when I looked at it again, I thought...that car does sort of resemble it...

If it's good enough for James Bond, it's good enough for you........ the Vanquish that is.

The Sagaris is a stunning looking auto, most TVRs are. It's a bit garish for my taste, but I still love it. However, you're going to find that most forum members don't even know what the hell it is. Here's some pics for those of you wondering...

By the way, I'll take a Zonda.

You mean this thing:






Looks like a FD RX7 on some extreme steroids.
I wouldn't be opposed to owning one, or even driving one.

Love that car. If I make it rich, I'll post pics... Has anyone seen the article in the new Motor Trend on the Chrysler's "Enzo Killer"? It's the Chrysler ME412. 850 HP V-12. 0-60 in 2.9 seconds (2.4 w/ 1-foot rollout). The Enzo does it in 3.4. The 412 has disc brakes the size of a Ford Focus's tires. They said that since they've gotten such good reaction to it, they will try to produce it as their "flagship" brand car. Anyone have a spare $500,000-$750,000 laying around? The only photos I could find were the original concept version, but from the pics the outside hasn't changed much.

While the Aston's aren't the fastest cars for the money, damn they're sexy...

Why do you think James Bond is always getting the girls?

You know when average looking chicks hang out with ugly onese to make themselves appear more attractive.

Well, when you put a supermodel next to an average chick, the supermodel remains damn hot and the average chick, well her flaws are more easily identified.

Seriously though, they are nice cars, just not greatest of all time

Actually I think one of the best looking cars of all time is the old 427 Cobra.

I have more simple taste. I'll just take these 3 in my garage, and I'll be perfectly happy.

How is the 360 for you. I know that it is an entry level ferrari. But still pretty nice.

You guys are missing probably the greatest road cars of all time.

The McLaren F1.
